ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical and imaging features of nonaneurysmal perimesencephalic subarachnoid hemorrhage (NAPSAH).MethodsThe patients with NAPSAH were retrospectively enrolled, and their clinical and imaging features were collected and analyzed.Results In 489 patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage treated over the same period, a total of 23 (4.7%) with NAPSAH were diagnosed with cranial CT and CT angiography.Subarachnoid blood centered in the prepontine cistern in 4 patients (17.39%), interpeduncular cistern in 8 (34.78%), ring pool in 7 (30.43%), and quadrigeminal cistern in 4 (17.39%).Two patients were transferred to other hospital for treatment, and the remaining 21 patients had a good outcome without complications and neurological deficits.Among them, the modified Rankin scale scores in 17 patient were 0, and 4 were 1.Their cardinal symptoms were forgetfulness, irritability, anxiety, and other subjective symptoms.They were improved after receiving psychological counseling and anti-anxiety treatment.ConclusionsThe incidence of NAPSAH is low.The clinical symptoms in patients with NAPSAH are mild, the outcomes are better without obvious complications.

Objective To investigate the expression of CD4 +CD25 +CD127 low regulatory T cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cells( PBMNCs) in order to explore the influence on the immune status and disease progression in the different period of acute ischemic stroke. Methods 60 patients with acute cerebral infarction were selected as the stroke group,and divided them into the 24~48 h group (n=16), 3~7 d group (n=22) and 8~14 d group (n=22);22 healthy human were set as the control group. To analyze the percentage of CD4 +CD25 +CD127low regu-latory T cells in the peripheral blood of acute cerebral infarction patients and healthy human with flow cytometry. Results The percentages of CD4 +CD25 +CD127 low and CD4 +CD25 high regulatory T cells in the peripheral blood of the stroke group were significantly decreased at 24 ~48 h,3 ~7 d ( P <0.01 ) when compared with the control group, and then tended to return toward the control value at 8~14 d (P>0.05);the percentage of CD4 + regula-tory T cells in the peripheral blood of the stroke group was significantly higher than control group ( P <0.05 ) . Conclusion Imbalance of regulatory T cells is very likely to play an important role in the immunological injury of acute ischemic stroke. Regulatory T cells may be involved in the pathogenesis of acute ischemic stroke,and early detection may provide a basis for treatment.

BACKGROUND: Adipose tissue-derived stem cells receive a high attention in tissue engineering research. Adipose tissue-derived stem cells lack of specific surface marker, there is no effective purified method. Purified adipose is a simple method to elevate purify of stem cells. OBJECTIVE:To analyze how to purify adipose tissues before primary culture of adipose tissue-derived stem cells. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The controlled animal experiment was performed at the Shanghai Animal Center of Experimental Medicine of Shanghai Sixth People’s Hospital between December 2007 and March 2008. MATERIALS: Four-week old Sprague Dawley rats were used for obtaining adipose tissues from the inguinal groove. METHODS: Adipose tissues from rat inguinal groove were dissected to educe superficial blood vessel and blood vessel branches. Both blood vessel inside and elliptic nodal tissues surrounding blood vessels were excised. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Stained elliptic nodal tissues stained by Hematoxylin-Eosin were observed with a microscope to make sure what kind of tissues they are. The purified adipose tissues and unpurified adipose tissues were stained by Hematoxylin-Eosin. The differences in their tissue construction were observed using the microscope. RESULTS: Elliptic nodal tissues stained by Hematoxylin-Eosin were proved to be lymphatic tissues. The tissue construction of purified adipose tissues was pure, and the cellular component was simple. Conversely, the tissue construction of unpurified adipose tissues was complicated, and cells were various with complicated components. CONCLUSION: The component of adipose tissues used to primary cultured adipose tissue-derived stem cells is complicated. As resection of superficial blood vessel, skin and muscle tissues, blood vessel inside tissues and lymphatic tissues should also be excised.

Objective Based on the analysis of time domain of heart sound with envelop to extract the envelope character of heart sounds.Methods The envelope extraction of heart sounds based on Hilbert-Huang Transform was given.Firstly,the original heart sounds signal was preprocessed by Huang Transform.Secondly,the envelope of heart sounds was got with Hilbert Transform.Results The first heart sound and the second heart sound were extracted,and all kinds of characters in time domain of heart sound were acquired more accurately.Conclusion The envelope of heart sound is extracted correctly.The foundation for further analysis of heart sounds is established.

Objective To evaluate Ho:YAG laser in the treatment of superficial bladder tumors. Methods 30 patients with superficial bladder tumors underwent endoscopic holmium laser resection with postoperative intravesical instillation therapy.There were 25 male patients and 5 famale with an average age of 54.The growth has been single in 15 and multiple in 15.The diameter of the tumor was 0.2～3.5 cm with the pathology grade G 1～G 2 and clinical stage T 1～T 2. Results The procedure has been successful in all and cold cup biopsies of the tumor base and incisal margin were negative.The mean resection time was 18 minutes,the mean volume of bleeding was less than 15 ml and no intraoperative bladder perforation or secondary hemorrhage occurred.All patients have been followed up for 3 to 14 months with a mean of 7.5 months.One patient (3%) had out-of-field recurrence. Conclusions Ho:YAG laser resection of bladder tumor (HoLRBt) provides an useful clinical therapeutic method that has the advantages of precise resection,simple technique,as well as no serious intraoperative or delayed complications.

Objective To highlight diagnosis and treatment of primary fibroepithelial polyp of ureter. Methods 7 cases of primary fibroepithelial polyp of ureter treated from May of 1990 to July of 2002 were analyzed retrospectively.Among them ,18～56 age of year,and right side in 5 cases,left in 2 cases.The foci are in upper,middle and lower part 2,3,2 cases respectively.The diagnosis was all ascertained on pathological studies. Results Hematuria and flank pain are the usual presentation.Preoperative image will reveal the lesion but the diagnosis of fibroepithelial polyp cannot be made by radiographic means alone.Surgical intervention was undertaken in all 7 cases.The initial case has undergone unnecessary nephroureterectomy as misdiagnosis of carcinoma of ureter.Surgical exploration and polypectomy was performed in 4 cases and polypectomy with holimlaser under ureteroscopy in 2 cases.The therapeutic results were satisfactory without relapse in 3 months～11 years follow up. Conclusions The diagnosis may be established with intravenous urogram and retrograde pyelography and surgical exploration may be performed when necessary.With the advent of ureteroscopy, a new minimally invasive approach to fibroepithelial polyp of ureter was introduced.

ObjectiveTo explore the radiological features of hypophosphatasia.MethodsFive cases of hypophosphatasia were definitely diagnosed,which included 3 males and 2 females aged from 5 months to 23 years.The laboratory assays were analyzed,radiological appearances of bone were determined and differential diagnoses were made.ResultsThe alkaline phosphatase in blood serum of five patients decreased,which were 8,20,13,21,and 18 U/L respectively.Phosphoethanolamine increased in blood serum of the five patients,which were 16.5,13.5,21.6,18.7,and 28.9 μmol/L respectively.Phosphoethanolamine also increased in urine,which were 2350,9120,3520,5280,and 1820 μmol/L respectively.Calcium in blood serum increased,which were 4.2,5.6,4.9,6.1,and 3.5 mmol/L respectively.X-ray images displayed that the density of bone decreased in 5 cases,the metaphyses exhibited widening and cupping in 4 cases,the provisional calcification zone of the metaphysis became thinning or disappearing in 4 cases,long bone bended in 4 cases and pathologically fractured in 1 case.Conclusion Hypophosphatasia can be indicated by its relatively special radiological appearance,and it can be diagnosed and differentiated from rickets,osteomalacia and osteogenesis imperfect by the laboratory examination combined with its clinical presentation.
